When buyers compare garage doors, they usually pay attention to the thickness of the panels, insulation values or surface designs.However, for dealers and installers, there is another component that directly affects the wind resistance, the lifespan of the door and the after-sales risk - garage door strut. Only by choosing the right struts can the quality of the garage door be improved from the source and the subsequent after-sales troubles be reduced.
Why are garage door struts important for distributors and installers
1.Higher wind resistance leads to fewer claims in extreme weather
In areas prone to storms, garage doors are constantly exposed to wind pressure impacts. Door panels without struts or with insufficient configuration are highly likely to be squeezed by strong winds, causing inward depressions, outward bulges, and even damage to hardware accessories.Our struts enhance the overall rigidity of the door panel, effectively resisting positive and negative wind pressure. With a reasonable configuration (such as a combination of multiple struts), it can easily meet the requirements of hurricane resistance. This enables the door system to meet higher wind load requirements, including hurricane-class configurations, helping distributors expand into high-demand markets while reducing weather-related complaints.
2.Prevent the garage door panel from sagging
Garage doors are prone to minor impacts during daily use. Moreover, large-span door panels (over 5.5 meters) may sag or bend in the middle due to their own weight after long-term use. This is one of the most common complaints faced by installers.The struts are directly installed on the inner side of the door panel, just like adding "ribs" to the door panel. They not only enhance the door panel's impact resistance, resisting the depression and deformation caused by daily bumps, but also completely solve the problems of bending and sagging caused by the door panel being too long and its own weight, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the garage door.
3.Improving structural stability = better noise control
Garages are prone to generating various types of noise during daily use. Door panels without struts have insufficient sealing performance and structural stability, making it easy for noise to penetrate and be transmitted to the interior or exterior.Our struts optimize the structural fit of the door panel, fill the gaps and enhance the overall density of the door panel, effectively blocking noise penetration and reducing noise transmission. This makes the garage door both practical and quiet, increases the added value of the product, and better meets the high requirements of the end users of the purchasing customers for living experience.
4.Increase service life and reduce usage cost
During the long-term operation of garage doors, without the protection of struts, they are prone to deformation and aging due to their own weight and external forces, which in turn accelerates the wear and tear of hardware accessories and shortens the overall service life.Our struts can effectively distribute the force on the door body, reduce the deformation and aging of the door panel, and at the same time slow down the wear rate of accessories such as hinges and rollers. This fundamentally extends the overall service life of the garage door, reduces the replacement and maintenance costs for customers, and makes your product more competitive in the market due to its high durability.
